Medical Profile of Richard Isaacs MD
Physician-in-Chief
/ Director, The Permanente Medical Group, Board of Directors, Oakland, CA
SUMMARY
“I joined Kaiser Permanente in 1995 and have
Advanced Certification in Head and Neck Oncologic Surgery. My specialties
include: orbital, nasal, and maxillofacial surgery, as well as thyroid and
parathyroid surgery. I function as a regional resource for the management of
advanced tumors of the head and neck and provide the otolaryngologic approach
for tumors at the skull base. Additionally, I am trained in Facial Plastic and
Reconstructive surgery and perform rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, otoplasty, and
rhytidectomy. I have an interest in post-tumor facial reconstruction and facial
reanimation surgery. I am a Fellow of the American Academy of
Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, and also a Fellow of the American College
of Surgeons.
I received my Bachelor of Science degree,
with Distinction, from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, and my Doctor
of Medicine degree, with Honors, from Wayne State University in Detroit. Then,
I completed my Otolaryngology training in New York at the Manhattan Eye, Ear,
and Throat Hospital / New York Hospital-Cornell Medical College. Subsequently,
I received additional Head and Neck Oncologic and Skull Base Surgical training
from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and The University of California,
Davis. I am also a 2004 graduate of the Kenan-Flagler School of Business
Advanced Leadership Program, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and the
University of California, San Francisco, CHCF Advanced Leadership Program. “
Roles
“In April of 2005, I was appointed to the Physician-In-Chief and
Chief-of-Staff positions for the South Sacramento and Elk Grove
Medical Facilities. I am very fortunate to be able to continue my head and neck
surgical practice and I greatly enjoy my administrative position as well. I
provide leadership to our 450 physicians/providers and more than 2000 nurses
and staff who care for the 200,000 Kaiser Permanente members in the South
Sacramento/Elk Grove area.”
